NY Tech Ed's December Scripting Hangout with Special Guest Katie Regan. We discuss the most popular Doctopus, and gClass Folder scripts as well as the game-changing Goobric Plug in. For more details on these scripts check out these tutorials by Jay Atwood

NY TECH ED was extremely fortunate to be able to get some time with two experts in educational Google Apps scripting, Bjorn Behrendt and Andrew Stillman. They are the minds behind some of the most commonly used scripts in schools using GAFE including Doctopus, Goobric, and gClassFolders. The conversation covered how they got into Google Apps scripting, different ways to get started on your own, as well as overviews of some of the more useful Google Apps scripts.
